OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, and Anthropic have come together to establish a forum dedicated to promoting the safe and responsible development of large machine-learning models. This initiative is aimed at coordinating safety research and defining best practices for what are known as frontier AI models, which surpass the capabilities of existing models and have the potential to pose significant risks.

The use of generative AI models, such as the ones powering chatbots like ChatGPT, enables the extrapolation of a vast amount of data rapidly, allowing the models to provide responses in the form of prose, poetry, and images. While these models have numerous applications, regulatory bodies like the European Union and industry leaders, including OpenAIs CEO Sam Altman, have emphasized the need for guardrail measures to address the potential risks associated with AI.

Microsoft President Brad Smith stated that companies developing AI technology have the responsibility to ensure its safety, security, and human control. The newly formed industry body, Frontier Model Forum, aims to collaborate with policymakers and academia, facilitating the sharing of information between companies and governments. Notably, the forum will not engage in lobbying activities but will initially focus on establishing a public library of benchmarks and technical evaluations for frontier AI models.

To streamline its efforts, the forum plans to establish an advisory board, secure funding through a working group, and create an executive board. Anna Makanju, Vice President of Global Affairs at OpenAI, emphasized the urgency of the forums work and its ability to make meaningful contributions to advancing AI safety.

Overall, this collaborative effort among industry leaders is a significant step towards ensuring the responsible development and deployment of large machine-learning models, thereby addressing potential risks and safeguarding public safety.
